This interactive area opened in March 2008 after replacing the Nickelodeon Blast Zone.
History of The Adventures of Curious George
The play area adjacent to the Universal Amphitheatre, replaced the Warlord Tower and a water feature. After Fievel's Playland was closed in 1997, the Upper Lot was without a childrens play area, so it was much needed. It opened as Nickelodeon Blast Zone in April 2001, and was closed to be rethemed as The Adventures of Curious George in January 2008.
Characters
Curious George can often be found nearby, as can Dora the Explorer and Spongebob Squarepants.. Although the area is not formally connected to Nickelodeon now, the Nickelodeon Stuff store is still in place, so there's still a home for Spongebob and Dora.
